RR: any other colors this paint comes in?

Nice find!

Boy, did this thread got detoured...

If you use cardboard to make templates, you can then call this CAD: cardboard Aided Design! I've heard used pizza boxes are best to use...

Have you checked with West Coast Cougar Classics?

There's no real connector for the pink resistor wire by itself. You'll have to dice and splice as needed. I'm the one who claims silver solder would work, as it was told to me by a salesman who specializes in various resistor wires. I have no experience with silver soldering.

I wish...to both! I have severe osteoarthritis throughout my body. I do have prescriptions for pain pills, but the pain doctor is wary of me taking too many. It's to the point where I can barely move around, even with pain. I wish Feb was here already!

SUSPENSION OF REFURBISHMENT: I am in need of a hip replacement, scheduled for early February. I am in great pain and can no longer spend time on my workbench repairing wiring harnesses. I will resume operations sometime after surgery, so please check back approximately mid-March. THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE

Without the engine running, there's no current flowing through the resistor, so you'll see the full 12V.

Anyone accuse you of being a packrat?

I like using the rubber mats one finds in the kitchen for stuck jar tops to remove stubborn bulbs.

Power for 950 does come from the top leftmost fuse, same as radio and backup lights.

Damn straight. If you want love, it costs big time!

I could have sworn it was RPM's fault...

Should be part of the main underdash harness. Look for a squarish plug with 3 wires on the passenger side, probably located now behind the kick panel. The wires are black/yellow, red, and blue.
